Get yourself a parachute and take to the sky in Discovery Sky to see how far you can float, collecting flower petals on the breeze. Players Lv. 33 and above can begin by accepting the quest ‘[Discovery] Discovery Sky’ from the event notifier. You can access the Discovery Sky via the Discovery Map UI located next to the star event notifier, and clicking the cloud icon. There are more flying maps to unlock, but you must complete the Flight Master quests before moving onto the next area.

Once the event begins, dash off the platform by hitting the right arrow twice, then jump off the platform before pressing the space bar to open up your parachute. The goal is to glide as far as possible and collide with the objects in the sky to gain Sky Points and gain height. Sky Points are used to automatically upgrade your Flying Level when a certain threshold is reached. Bonus effects will also be unlocked when obtaining a new Flying Level. You can gain additional Ark Points and Sky Points when flying certain distances.

Last week, we unfortunately experienced some issues with Luna world that required us to take it down for an unscheduled maintenance. The maintenance lasted longer than we anticipated, during which time players were unable to access their Luna world characters.

To help make up for it, we are running a 2x EXP & Drop Event in Luna world that will last for 5 days starting this Friday (UTC)! This event will stack with 2x EXP Coupons and 2x Drop Coupons, so you could earn 4x EXP and 4x Drop during the posted times.

The event will last for 2 hours every day and last through next Tuesday (UTC). Keep an eye on the top of your screen for the scrolling 2x EXP & Drop announcement, or on the left side of your screen for the 2x EXP & Drop icon!

Times:

• PDT (UTC -7): Friday, June 29 to Tuesday, July 3 everyday from 11:00 AM - 1:00 PM
  
• EDT (UTC -4): Friday, June 29 to Tuesday, July 3 everyday from 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM
